The sheltered, sandy Apollo Bay main beach is a great place to swim or bodysurf.
Just behind the sand dunes, the Apollo Bay foreshore area has a terrific playground, skate park, lots of open space for games and picnic and BBQ facilities.
Right opposite the main street food outlets and ice-creameries, it’s perfect for grabbing an al fresco bite to eat.

The Apollo Bay Fishing Fleet is moored at the harbour, sheltered by a large breakwater.
As a working harbour it is an interesting site to wander through and see the professional fishermen either unloading their catch or preparing to depart on another voyage to sea.
Apollo Bay is renowned for crayfish, and the stacks of lobster pots stacked up on the wharves make an interesting spectacle. The daily catch is available fresh from the boat at the local fishermens cooperative.

The best fishing spots in Lorne include Reedy Creek, Loutit Bay, Lorne Pier and Lorne Beach. There are also some opportunities for freshwater fishing in the hinterland areas.
Fishing licenses are available at the Lorne Visitor Information Centre.
